Bacterial consortium biotransformation of pentachlorophenol contaminated wastewater

Archives of Microbiology, 2021
The aims of this study were (i) to compare PCP removal (100 mg L-1) by two bacterial consortia B1 and B2 in sterile wastewater (STWW) and liquid mineral medium (MSM), (ii) PCP effect in biofilm formation and antimicrobial susceptibility. PCP removal was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) during 168 h at 30 °C.

Characterization of an efficient chloramphenicol-mineralizing bacterial consortium

Chemosphere, 2019
Obtaining efficient antibiotic-mineralizing consortium or pure cultures is a central issue for the deep elimination of antibiotic-contaminated environments. However, the antibiotic chloramphenicol (CAP) mineralizing consortium has not yet been reported.

Biodegradation of dibromoneopentyl glycol by a bacterial consortium

Chemosphere, 2007
Dibromoneopentyl glycol (DBNPG) is a brominated flame retardant that is used as an additive during the manufacture of plastic polymers and as a chemical intermediate for other flame retardants. It is classified as not readily biodegradable and based on experimental studies in animals is believed to be a carcinogen.

Photosynthetic hydrogen production by alginate immobilized bacterial consortium

Bioresource Technology, 2017
Photosynthetic hydrogen production from organic wastewaters using immobilized mixed culture with photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) was studied. A PSB consortium was immobilized by alginate matrix to form granules. The so-yielded granules exhibited minimal diffusional resistances to substrates and to illumination penetration but still produced more hydrogen

Characterization of Pentachlorophenol Degrading Bacterial Consortium from Chemostat

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2008
A microbial consortium was developed by continuous enrichment of bacterial population isolated from sediment core of pulp and paper mill effluent in mineral salts medium (MSM) supplemented with pentachlorophenol (PCP) as sole source of carbon and energy in the chemostat.

Functional characterization of an efficient ibuprofen-mineralizing bacterial consortium

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2023
Ibuprofen (IBU) is a widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), which has attracted widespread attention due to its high frequency of environmental detection, non-degradability and potential ecological risks. However, little is known about the functional characterization of the highly efficient IBU-mineralizing consortium. In this study,

Biodegradation of ketoprofen using a microalgal–bacterial consortium

Biotechnology Letters, 2016
To test the toxicity of ketoprofen (a commonly-used NSAIDs) using two microalgal strains and Artemia sp. following the isolation of bacterial and microalgal strains and testing their ability to biodegrade and tolerate ketoprofen.Chlorella sp. was the most resistant to ketoprofen.

Indigenously acclimatized bacterial consortium for anthracene biotransformation

Energy Sources, Part A: Recovery, Utilization, and Environmental Effects, 2017
ABSTRACTA bacterial consortium was screened from the soil exposed to frequent petroleum spills and was employed to degrade and detoxify anthracene at normal operating parameters under static condition. The anthracene degradation was facilitated by the bacterial cells mediated metabolism and biodegradation was confirmed by the different spectral and ...

A novel lignin degradation bacterial consortium for efficient pulping

Bioresource Technology, 2013
A lignin degradation bacterial consortium named LDC was screened from the sludge of a reeds pond by a restricted subculture. It could break down 60.9% lignin in reeds at 30°C under conditions of static culture within 15 days. In order to analyze the diversity of LDC, plate isolation, 16S rDNA clone library and ARDRA (Amplified Ribosomal DNA Restriction
